The Golden Hour themed contest is closed, and our picks are in. Thanks for being patient with the results, folks. A couple weeks ago, we asked you to show us your best Golden Hour images. Also known as the “magic hour”, this time of the day marks the period right after sunrise and before sunset—a perfect time to take advantage of the daylight’s softer and more red-orange hue. We’ve received more than 1,500 tagged entries! Thanks to everyone who submitted and shared their stunning shots with us. To be honest, there were so many amazing entries that it was a challenge for us to narrow down our choices into a final list. Make sure to check out the contest gallery, and browse the rest of the great Golden Hour entries there.
Here are 20 of the 500px’s favorite Golden Hour photos from the entries, category by category:
